It has been a little over a week since Maureen Montagne was named Miss Globe in Tirana, Albania, thanks to her flawless answer to the question “Do you think beauty is a merit and how can we enrich it with other values?"
Maureen won the crown after saying that beauty comes from within and that using it to help others is the best way to enrich it with other values.
“I believe that everyone has beauty inside of them and I believe it's our duty to share it to the world and to give back and to truly inspire others,” she said.
Her win has made her only the second Filipina to hold the title after Ann Colis' win in 2015, a fitting climax to a beauty pageant journey that started in July after she won the right to represent the country during the Binibining Pilipinas 2021 pageant.
While Maureen hasn't made her way home yet to get a proper homecoming and celebration, it doesn't mean that the newly-minted titleholder hasn't been getting started on her year-long reign.
Check out what Maureen has done during her first week as the 2021 Miss Globe in the gallery below.
Photoshoots are the first thing on the schedule as Maureen starts her reign. This one was taken just two days after she was named Miss Globe 2021.
